Why is My Air Conditioner Suction Line Frozen?

A common issue with suction lines is freezing. There are main reasons why this specific part experiences it. We have the main reasons often handled by AC services for better understanding.

Low Refrigerant Levels

Refrigerant facilitates the transfer of hot air in your unit. Once there’s a leak where it passes, there won’t be enough refrigerant to complete the process.

Leaks also cause internal pressure to drop in the coil. This causes freezing and blockage, which affects airflow. The suction line then freezes. You need immediate AC repair to resolve this dilemma.

Airflow Problems

A blockage, dirty filter, or a slow or malfunctioning blower fan affects airflow to the evaporator coil. This in turn affects the process of heating the refrigerant. The drop in pressure and temperature freezes the suction line. Airflow issues need AC maintenance right away.
